GENERAL  STATEMENT 


There  is  no  greater  human  desire  than  that  for  good  health. 
To  secure  it  for  the  individual,  reared  amidst  the  complexities 
of  modern  civilization,  requires  trained  leadership  of  the  high- 
est type  which  knows,  and  can  put  into  practice,  such  personal 
and  community  health  habits  as  will  prevent  the  development  of 
needless  disease  and  physical  or  mental  defects,  thereby  pro- 
longing life  and  increasing  efficiency. 

The  School  of  Public  Health  of  the  University  of  Louisville 
was  established  for  the  purpose  of  providing  the  training  neces- 
sary for  successful  Health  Officers  and  Public  Health  Nurses. 
In  this,  its  fourth  catalogue,  it  approaches  its  problem  with  the 
confidence  given  it  by  the  success  of  its  graduates  in  their  various 
fields  of  responsibility.  Although  young  in  years,  the  School 
can  point  with  pride  to  the  fact  that  each  of  its  graduates,  who 
so  desiring  it,  has  been  able  to  step  into  and  successfully  conduct 
the  particular  work  for  which  she,  or  he,  was  fitted.  The  right 
foundation  for  a  public  health  career  is  builded  in  the  School, 
and  upon  this  our  students  are  successfully  erecting  the  organi- 
zations which,  in  their  varying  fields,  are  most  essential. 

It  is  not  the  purpose  of  the  School  to  develop  research  work- 
ers nor  specialists  in  the  various  branches  of  sanitary  science. 
Its  purpose,  and  in  this  purpose  it  has  been,  and  is  being,  suc- 
cessful, is  to  develop  practical  Health  Officers  and  Health  Nurses, 
trained  in  welfore  work,  able  to  cope  with  the  every  day  prob- 
lems of  the  communities  in  which  they  serve. 

It  is  realized  that  most  of  the  sanitary  progress  that  has 
been  made  in  the  past  has  been  made  by  physicians  who,  while 
wholly  untrained  in  the  science  of  preventive  medicine,  have  of 
necessity  developed  the  art  of  sanitation.  These  part-time  health 
officers  have  created  a  demand  for  trained  all-time  health  work- 
ers who  can  convince  all  the  people  of  the  necessities  of  personal 
and   community  hygiene.     To   help   in   adequately  supplying 


this  new  and  insistent  demand  in  Kentucky  and  other  states, 
the  University  of  Louisville  has  established  a  School  of  Public 
Health  for  the  practical  education  and  training  of  Health  Of- 
ficers, Public  Health  Nurses,  Laboratory  Technicians  and  San- 
itary Inspectors. 

The  faculty  comprises  the  directors  of  the  Bureaus  of  the 
State  Board  of  Health  of  Kentucky,  members  of  the  faculty  of 
the  University  of  Louisville,  of  the  Louisville  Normal  School, 
the  directors  of  the  Public  Health  Nursing  Association  of  Louis- 
ville, and  the  Louisville  Welfare  League. 

The  cooperation  of  the  Medical  Department  of  the  Univer- 
sity, the  American  Red  Cross,  the  Kentucky  Tuberculosis  Asso- 
ciation, the  Louisville  Normal  School  and  the  Louisville  Public 
Library  has  been  constant  and  invaluable. 

The  school  is  conducted  in  a  modern  building,  especially 
adapted  for  the  purpose,  which  would  cost  $300,000.00  to  build, 
containing,  also,  the  offices  and  equipment  of  the  State  Board  of 
Health,  including  the  laboratories.  Each  student  spends  enough 
time  in  the  work  of  each  bureau  to  be  thoroughly  acquainted 
with  its  methods  and  to  be  able  to  call  upon  it  for  the  assistance 
it  is  intended  to  give  him,  or  her,  as  a  health  official. 

The  field  work  is  conducted  in  connection  with  the  Health 
Department  of  the  city  of  Louisville  and  in  the  splendidly  or- 
ganized and  supervised  Public  Health  Nursing  Association  of 
Louisville,  ably  directed  by  Miss  Elmira  Bears,  and  in  one  of 
the  rural  county  health  departments  where  there  is  a  full-time 
health  officer  in  charge,  with  a  trained  public  health  nurse,  un- 
der the  supervision  of  Miss  Marian  Williamson,  State  Director 
of  Public  Health  Nursing.  The  students  will  be  given  practical 
work  under  competent  supervision,  in  every  line  of  activity  in 
which  they  will  be  interested. 

The  demand  for  Health  Officers  and  Public  Health  Nurses 
is  constantly  increasing.  Students  who  are  willing  to  apply 
themselves  can  be  assured  of  splendid  opportunities  for  service.

The  purpose  of  this  course  is  to  furnish  instruction  in  pub- 
lic health  and  administrative  methods  to  those  who  have  a  liberal

in  public  health  of  such  a  character  that  a  student  may  receive 
his  degree  in  medicine  on  the  completion  of  four  years'  work 
and  his  degree  in  public  health  after  an  additional  year  or  (fifth 
year  of  work  in  this  School  and  a  summer  of  practical  field  work. 

The  tuition  for  this  course  is  two  hundred  and  fifty  dollars 
($250.00)  a  year.     The  matriculation  fee  is  five  dollars  ($5.00).
